ABSTRACTMSc. THESISGEOLOGY, PETROGRAPHY AND GEOCHEMISTRY OF THEELAZIĞ MAGMATICSOUTCROPING BETWEEN SOĞANLI-UYANDIK (ELAZIĞ) REGIONCahit DÖNMEZDEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGICAL ENGINEERINGINSTITUTE OF NATURAL AND APPLIED SCIENCESUNIVERSITY OF ÇUKUROVASupervisor : Doç.Dr. Osman PARLAKYear : 2006, Pages: 66Jury : Doç Dr. Osman PARLAKProf. Dr. Fikret ŞLERDoç.Dr. Ergül YAŞARUpper Cretaceous Elazığ magmatics, Middle-Upper Eocene Kırkgeçitformation, Upper Miocene-Pliocene Çaybağı formation and Plio-Quaternary Paluformation form the lithostratigraphic units croping out in the area between Soğanlı-Uyandık (Kovancılar-Elazığ). Geological, petrographical and geochemical studieshave been carried out in order to figure out the regional significance of the Elazığmagmatics in detail. The Elazığ magmatics in the study area are represented byspilitic pillow basalts at the bottom and followed by pyroxene andesite lava flow,pyroclastics interbedded with rhyodacite-rhyolite lava and volcanogenic sandstonesat the top. The Kırkgeçit, Çaybağı and Palu Formations rest on the Elazığ magmaticswith an unconformity. Field and geochemical studies carried out on the Elazığmagmatics revealed that they were derived from a tholeiitic magma and formed in anisland arc tectonic environment which was built up on the supra-subduction zonesetting in the southern branch of Neotethys during the Late Cretaceous.Key Words: Elazığ Magmatics, Late Cretaceous, tholeiitic, intraoceanic subduction,island arc
